Hello. I'm 15 years old and I'm a 34DD in bra size. Im 5'-1 and 128lbs I started developing at an early age and my cup size hasn't increased in 2 years but I noticed that it appears most of my breasts is just loose skin. They point downward, especially after a hot shower and ive been having a lot of discomfort in my upper back. I was wondering if I'm too young to get a breast lift and if a breast lift could solve some of the issues? Im most just concerned about the way they droop. The size I'm happy with

Answer: Breast lift at 15 I think at 15 you might be a bit young to get a lift. You might still grow a bit more with time. Best of luck.

Answer: Qualifying for a breast lift Dear memogram1228, Thank you for your clinical post and I’m sorry to hear of your symptomatic breast hypertrophy. Enlarged breasts can lead to significant symptoms such as you experience neck pain, shoulder pain, skin inflammations under the crease. All of these are health care concerns and would make you a candidate for Ontario Health Insurance Plan breast reduction surgery. A breast reduction would not only give you a lift and a more youthful breast position, but would likely provide significant symptom relief. The problem is that at 15 years old you still have a significant amount of potential breast growth and hypertrophy to occur and surgery at a young age might necessitate subsequent surgery at a later age. Waiting until you have finalized your growth as judged by skeletal maturity, which is generally x-rays of your wrist growth plates will determine when the best and optimal time for a breast reduction would be. You will likely be in the range of 17 years old and still require some parental consent. I would seek out a plastic surgeon in your area that does breast reduction surgery and you can begin the consultation process at 15 or 16, as often the waiting time is 1-2 years. I hope this information has been of some assistance and best of luck. For more information, please review the link below. R. Stephen Mulholland, M.D. Certified Plastic Surgeon Yorkville, Toronto
